Making Room...The Gulf, Bagels and Crocs.


 Good morning, friends... The week has passed by so fast!  Been trying to stay busy.  In our living room, there is a wasted space.  The room is long and narrow.  So...at the back end of it, I've confiscated the wasted space.  It was becoming an area for chargers!  Larry just kept adding battery charger, after charger, for our vacuums, flashlights, patio blower...etc.  Also, unused chairs and a sofa table that was against the wall.  He's taken over both rooms of our outdoor building!  One side for his woodworking and the other, for his lasers.  I had nowhere, really, for my Cricut or sewing and quilting.  I have two sewing machines and a Cricut machine and all the supplies that go with them.  I need space!  Hence, the back wall area for sewing and quilting and my office for the Cricut.  I'm still sorting but will eventually get there.   
I always wondered why Mom would do the strangest things around the family home...now I know! lolol
I think it has something to do with us older folks making new nesting areas in our lives...


His woodworking room...I think all those chargers have somewhere to go! lol
I said to him, go open the outside building doors...I need to take a couple of pictures...lolol...I know he was thinking, "man...I should have cleaned up out here...".



And his laser room...




My area at the back end of the living room...for sewing.  See the sofa table?  It once was full of chargers! lol




My office in one of the spare bedrooms.  We have a 3 bedroom, 2 bath house.  One is for guest...one is for Larry and me and this is the third.  It's tiny...about 13 x 13?  It was our daughter's bedroom, growing up.




I converted it to a work area after she left home.  I'm cleaning out these bookshelves...That's my older computer, on the floor, that I've reset and giving to my cranky sister, Ruth Ann...lol





Now I can do some projects on the Cricut without getting things confused!  Libby was in full agreement! lol
My computer work area is on the opposite wall.







Our granddaughter Sam, hubby Everett and our Sloane went on vacation to Port Aransas last week.  Sloane had a wonderful time!




Sloane and cousin, River.



Cousin Arlis and Sloane...




She loves the boat rides!




Her first real soaking in the Gulf of Mexico...loving it!



A family affair...





All dressed up for a seafood dinner, out...take Particular notice of the clip in her hair...lolol...big girl, like mommy.




Our sweethearts, Sam and Sloane...









I threw some blueberry bagels under the toaster and added sweet lemon butter...oh my word, good!









I made Enchiladas Suisa...with flour tortillas...







Then made rice and tomatoes with butter and salt for an easy lunch.


 






I ordered Larry some Crocs from Amazon...I got the size right!  Couldn't believe it!  He likes them (shock) and has been wearing them every day!


Well, I guess that's it for me today...We are getting Sloane today because it's Juneteenth.  The daycare closed...No mail delivery if you're wondering why you didn't get any...
Hope you're all well and happy...so until next time...
